In  presenting  our  Catalogue  to  the  public,  we  have 
endeavored  to  furnish  a  classified,  illustrated  and  descrip¬ 
tive  price  list  of  nearly  all  our  goods,  all  of  which  we 
warrant  fully  equal  to  representation. 

We  manufacture  to  order  a  variety  of  work  on  which 
it  is  impossible  to  quote  prices  until  we  know  the  quantity, 
quality,  style  and  size  required.  For  all  such  work  we  will 
give  special  estimates. 

In  ordering,  be  careful  always  to  give  each  article  its 
proper  name  or  number,  the  number  of  catalogue,  as  well  as 
"  the  page  on  which  it  is  shown.  Do  not  cut  out  the 
,  illustrations,  as  it. defaces  the  book  and  does  not  make 
the  order  any  plainer.

REESE’S  NEW  PATENT 


ADJUSTABLE  STENCIL  LETTERS 


In  offering  these  Letters  to  the  public,  the  inventor  and  manufacturers  feel  confident  that 
those  who  may  have  occasion  to  use  them  will  pronounce  them  indispensable  to  every  well-reg¬ 
ulated  business  house. 

The  improvement  consists  in  a  beaded  lock  on  the  edge  of  the  letters,  so  that  they  can 
be  joined  together,  thereby  enabling  you  to  form  any  Word,  Name  or  Address,  and,  after 
being  used  for  that  purpose,  they  can  be  distributed  and  formed  again  for  another  address,  and 
so  on  continually,  while  a  common  stencil  plate  can  only  be  used  for  one  certain  brand. 

By  having  a  font  of  these  Stencils,  you  can  address  Packages,  make  Signs,  Show  Cards, 
etc.,  etc.  The  Letters,  when  joined,  are  perfectly  level  on  the  under  side,  and  are  accurately 
spaced,  so  that  when  an  impression  is  taken  the  print  is  phrfect. 

They  are  unquestionably  the  cheapest  and  most  convenient  invention  ever  made  —  the 
most  practicable  thing  for  Shippers  in  marking  merchandise,  for  manufacturers  in  marking 
brands  on  boxes  and  for  shipping  purposes,  for  Merchants  and  Real  Estate  men  in  making 
sign  cards- and  bulletin  boards,  for  Millers,  Distillers  and  Wholesale  Liquor  Dealers  in  brand¬ 
ing  barrel  heads, L'etc.,  and  for  Farmers  and  Planters  in  marking  implements,  bags,  robes,  etc. 
For  Plow  Factories,  Wagon  Makers  and  Cheese  Factories  they  are  almost  indispensable 
and  they  will  prove  a  great  benefit  and  time-saver  to  everybody. 

They  are  put  up  in  fonts,  correctly  assorted  as  to  vowels,  consonants,  periods,  $  and 
%  marks,  etc.  Made  in  six  sizes  only,  viz  :  inch,  %  inch,  %  inch,  i  inch,  i  inch,  2  inch  and 
inch.  NO  OTHER  SIZES  MADE.

SABBATH  SCHOOL  COMBINATION  CONTAINS 

One  Alphabet,  inch  Condensed  Roman  Capitals . . .

Onfe  Gian  No.  4  best  Black  Stencil  Paste . . . . 

One  No.  3  Stencil  Brush . . . . . . 

All  contained  in  a  neat  and  strong  hinged  covered  box,  2x314x16  inches.

Outfit  same  as  above,  substituting  i  inch  caps  and  set  of  figures . . . .  i  00 


These  letters  are  so  arranged  on  strips  of  sheet  brass  that  the  most  inexperienced  person 
can  do  the  printing  neatly  and  in  less  than  half  the  time  occupied  wiih  the  old  style  alphabets. 
The  letters,  though  inch  high,  will  contain  more  words  in  a  given  space  than  the  ordinary 
one-inch  machine-cut  alphabets  in  general  use.  Having  been  designed  expressly  for  the  purpose 
for  which  they  are  advertised,  we  feel  confident  they  will  meet  with  general  favor  from  all  who 
may  have  occasion  to  use  them. 


The  Northern  Christian  Advocate  of  Jan.  21,  1886,  says  : 

“The  capacity  of  this  device  is  unlimited.  By  it  the  superintendent  can  print  a  new  song  and  put  it  before  the 
school ;  he  can  print  a  pre-view  of  a  quarter’s  lessons  or  a  review  scheme  when  the  quarter  ends  ;  he  can  make  an 
opening  Scripture  service  and  hang  it  up  to  command  every  eye  ;  he  can  print  the  Apostle's  Creed,  the  Lord’s  Prayer, 
the  Ten  Commandments,  or  if  he  has  time  and  patience  he  can  put  the  whole  Catechism  on  a  roll  of  calendered  manila 
paper  to  be  unrolled,  question  by  question,  and  memorized.  'W'e  pronounce  it  the  desideratum  for  the  purposes  for 
which  it  was  designed  and  believe  many  superintendents  will  gladly  avail  themselves  of  it.’’

Reese’s  Stencil  Ink. 


Reese’s  Stencil  Ink,  of  various  colors  and 


sizes,  is  better  and  cheaper  than  liquid  ink  for 

all  stencil  purposes ;  it  v/orks 

freely,  dries 

quickly, 

does  not  blot  or  gum 

the  plate  or 

brush,  and  will  keep  in  any  climate  wdhout 

evaporation  or  waste. 

Directions  for  Using. — After  wetting  the 
brush  with  water  from  the  sponge,  rub  it  over 
the  ink  until  a  sufficient  quantity  adheres.

“It  seems  strange  that  in  cities  like  New 
York  and  Brooklyn,  people  do  n<'t  carry 
their  names  and  addresses  in  their  clothing, 
so  that  in  case  of  accident  or  sudden  death 
they  may  be  identified.  It  would  save  im¬ 
mense  trouble,  expense  and  anxiety,  and 
be  only  the  right  and  proper  thing  to  do 
after  all.  Yet,  it  is  rarely_  the  case  that  those 
picked  up  in  the  streets  ill,  or  that  persona 
drowned  or  injured  by  accident  have  any 
writing  about  them  that  would  identify 
them.  A  little  care  would  save  complicated 
mysteries,  and  restore  many  a  missing  body 
to  friends.  Particularly  should  this  be  the 
case  with  children,  and  with  those  who  are 
likely  to  be  out  at  unseasonable  hours.” — 
Brooklyn  Eagle. 

Metal  Checks  stamped  with  name  and 
address,  are  better  than  writing  or  marking 
of  any  kind.  They  are  fire  proof  under 
ordinary  circumstances  and  have  repeatedly 
been  the  only  means  by  which  bodies  could 
be  identified  that  were  taken  from  the  ruins 
of  fires. 

Any  of  these  Checks  stam  ped 
with  name  and  address, 

25  Cents.

FOR  PERFORATING  THE  ORIGINAL  AMOUNT  IN 


CHECKS,  DRAFTS,  BONDS,  STOCK  CERTIFICATES,  ETC.,  SO  THAT 

IT  CANNOT  BE  RAISED. 


There  is  an  Impression,  Quite  Prevalent, 

among  business  men,  that  should  checks,  drawn  by  them,  on  their  bank,  be  raised, 
and  successfully  negotiated,  that  THEY  WOULD  NOT  BE  LIABLE,  but  the  LOSS 
WOULD  FALL  ON  THE  BANK.  But  the  higher  courts  have  rendered  decisions  as 
follows,  touching  this  point:  “  The  MAKER  of  a  check  is  OBLIGED  TO  USE  ALL 
DUE  VIGILENCE  IN  PROTECTING  IT.  THE  OMISSION  TO  USE  THE  MOST 
EFFECTUAL  PROTECTION  AGAINST  ALTERATION,  is  evidence  of  NEGLECT 
which  RENDERS  HIM  RESPONSIBLE  for  the  FRAUDULENT  AMOUNT,  the 
BANK  BEING  RESPONSIBLE,  ONLY,  for  the  GENUINENESS  of  the  SIGNATURE 
and  ORDINARY  CARE  in  PAYING  the  check.” 

Authorities  such  as 

Daniels,  Morse,  Bolles,  Commercial  Precedents.  Benj.  Chalmers,  4th  Bing.,  and  others, 
clearly  define,  that  in  the  absence  of  any  suspicious  condition,  the  MAKER  IS  LIABLE, 
and  this  applies  to  BUSINESS  MEN  as  well  as  banks.  “With  the  responsibility  lim¬ 
ited  to  the  facts  within  their  knowledge,  the  practice,  imposes  no  burden  on  the  banks. 
—Court  of  Appeals. 

For  simplicity  and  excellence  of  construction,  ease  of  opera¬ 
tion,  durability,  and  clean,  perfect  work,  not  only  has  this  punch 
no  equal  on  the  market,  but  that  is  the  only  machine  which  in 
all  respects  fills  the  bill.

White  Enameled  Letters 


Ape  the  I^ost  Attpactive  Iz^etteps  Dow  in  Qse. 

They  can  be  distinguished  at  a  great  distance, 
and  can  be  seen  at  night  as  well  as  by  day... 

Letters  in  stock,  plain,  for  windows,  or  with  holes  for  nailing  on  sign  boards. 

Pins  for  attaching  letters  to  signs,  loc.  per  oz.  Cement  for  attaching  letters  on  windows,  25c.- 
per  pound.  • 

Letters  or  figures  with  holes  for  pins,  cost  2c.  in  addition  to  price  for  those  without  holes. 

In  ordering,  please  state  whether  letters  are  required  for  windows  or  board  signs. 

Owing  to  the  weight  of  these  letters,  and  the  amount  of  packing  required  to  guard  against 
breakage,  they  can  be  sent  by  Express  cheaper  than  by  Mail — except,  perhaps,  in  the  case  of  a 
limited  number  of  the  smaller  sizes. 

DIRECTIONS  FOR  ATTACHING  LETTERS.— Apply  the  cement  with  a  narrow-pointed

down,  pressing  it  closely  to  exclude  the  air,  and  secure  a  good  adhesion.  Press  the  cement  out, 
so  that  the  edge  will  be  protected,  and  clean  the  cement  from  around  the  edges  of  the  letter  with  a.

The  Crown  Rubber  Stamp  Press 

FOR  RRIISTTHSTG 


Patented  Feb.  14,  1888. 


This  cut  represents  the  latest  and  most  perfect  working  Printing  Press  in  the  mar¬ 
ket,  being  far  superior  in  every  respect  to  any  of  the  Presses  yet  introduced  for  print¬ 
ing  with  Rubber  Stamps,  Solid  Rubber,  or  Metal-Bodied  Rubber  Type. 

It  is  handsomely  finished  and  ornamented,  and  as  its  Die  Plate  (to  which  the 
stamps  or  forms  are  attached  hy  clamps)  e.xtends  its  entire  width,  a  uniforrri  bearing  is 
secured  upon  the  entire  stamp  instead  of  on  the  centre  only,  no  matter  how  large  or 
small,  while  the  double  arms  on  each  side  hold  it  firmly  in  position.  Its  motion  con¬ 
sists  in  simply  dropping  the  handle  from  the  Ink  Pad  to  the  Paper  ;  no  other  pressure 
being  required.  Its  durable  construction  (without  springs  of  any  kind),  together  with 
its  simplicity  of  action  enables  even  a  child  to  produce  work  equal  in  every  respect  to 
that  done  on  the  most  improved  Steam  Presses,  without  the  possibility  of  making  an 
imperfect  or  bad  impression. 

Its  elevated  Ink  Pad  admits  the  passing  of  paper  under  it,  either  lengthwise  or 
sidewise,  thus  enabling  the  operator  to  place  his  impression  in  any  position  desired. 

An  important  feature  in  connection  with  the  Press  is  its  adjustable  gauges  for 
holding  the  paper  firmly  in  position.  The  device  used  is  simple  and  absolutely  perfect. 

Each  Press  is  provided  with  a  dove-tailed  box  with  sliding  cover,  containing  ; 

1  Set  Nickel  Plated  Gauges,  5  Nickel  Plated  damps,  t  Iren  Ink  Pad,  t  Ink  Distributer.

Our  Stencil  Cutting  Outfit 

Will  Enable  any  Shipping  Clerk  to  Cut  all  the  Shipping  Mark 
Stencils  Needed,  and  will  therefore  Save  Time  and  Money. 

Every  well-regulated  manufacturing  concern 
making  sliipments  should  have  a  complete  set  of 
our  cast  cast-steel  Stencil  Dies,  for  cutting  ship¬ 
ping  plates,  and  thereby 

Avoid  Frequent  Errors  in  Marking. 

There  are  no  instructions  necessary  to  enable 
any  one  to  cut  stencils  with  the>e  dies,  except 
that  the  block  upon  which  the  siencils  are  cut 
should  rest  on  a  solid  bench  and  should  be  kept 
smooth  by  being  planed  off  when  occasion  re¬ 
quires.  Only  a  sufficiently  hard  blow  to  cut  the 
letter  should  be  struck  with  the  mallet.  Ry 
observing  these  rules  a  set  of  our  stencil  dies  will 
last  for  years,  and  many  hundred  dollars  worth  of  stencils  may  be  cut  with  them.  We  offer  a 
complete  outfit,  a  good  representation  of  which  is  seen  in  the  cut,  consisting  of  a  set  of  Stencil 
Dies,  put  in  a  substantial  box,  a  Block,  a  Mallet,  Compass,  Rule  and  six  sheets  of  Oil  Stencil 
Board.

The  Gem  Key  Check  Outfit  consists  of  one  set  of  one-sixteenth  inch  Steel  Letters 
and  Figures ;  one  Steel  Hammer  ;  one  Polished  Steel  Block  on  which  the  checks  are 
laid  while  being  stamped;  ten  German  Silver  Oval  Eagle  Key  Checks,  and  twenty- 
five  small  Steel  Rings  by  which  the  checks  can  be  attached  to  large  Key  Ring. 

All  the  above  neatly  arranged  in  a  compact  case. 

People  should  carry  their  names  and  addresses  in  their  clothing  so  that  in  case  of 
accident  or  sudden  death  they  may  be  identified.  It  would  save  immense  trouble, 
expense  and  anxiety.  Yet  it  is  rarely  the  case  that  those  picked  up  in  the  streets,  or 
that  persons  drowned  or  injured  by  accident,  have  any  writing  about  them  that  would 
identify  them.  A  little  care  would  save  complicated  mysteries  and  restore  many  a 
missing  body  to  friends. 

A  German  Silver  Key  Check  with  name  and  address  is  proof  against  fire  and 
water,  and  serves  the  purpose  of  restoring  valuable  keys  when  lost,  and  is  also  a  means 
of  identification  in  case  of  accident. 

With  our  $5.00  outfit  any  boy  can  learn  to  stamp  names  and  addresses  neatly 
in  a  short  time.  The  blank  checks  cost  but  two  cents  each  and  will  sell  readily 
when  stamped  with  name  and  address  at  twenty-five  cents.

American  Printing  Wheels. 


These  Wheels  are  made  for  use  where  large  printing  dies  are  required,  and 
are  especially  adapted  for  use  on  wrapping  paper.  They  are  furnished  in  five 
si^es  and  will  print  as  per  dimensions  given  below.  Being  self-inking,  they  can 
be  used  very  rapidly,  the  ink  being  supplied  to  the  printing  die  by  two  ink 
rollers  as  shown  in  cut.  They  roll  from  the  operator  and  stop  after  the  full 
impression  is  taken,  and  spring  back  automatically  to  the  original  position,  a 
feature  not  embodied  in  other  styles,  and  one  which  insures  a  ])erfect  inking  of 
the  printing  die,  as  the  die  is  inked  while  taking  an  impression,  and  is  inked 
again  when  the  wheel  is  returning  to  its  original  position.
